The image depicts Vishnu and Lakshmi. The painting shows two figures sitting on a throne-like chair with a green and yellow base and curved legs. The figure on the left is male and has dark blue skin, long black hair, and wears a yellow crown with blue and red details, large hoop earrings, a white necklace, a yellow dhoti, and a green sash. He sits in a yoga position with his right leg bent and his left leg extended, and his right arm raised and left arm resting on his knee. The figure on the right is female and has light brown skin, long black hair, and wears a yellow crown with green details, large hoop earrings, a white necklace, a red and black striped shawl, and a red garment. She sits with her right leg crossed over her left and her hands resting on her lap and knee. A yellow figure with a green head and red heart-shaped object lies at their feet. The background of the painting is a mottled light brown color.
